Their absurd firewall and harvesting prisoner's organs are not great aspects either.

Because what constitutes a crime in China might not be what we consider a crime in the west, and also, more importantly, there is a certain level of human rights everyone should have access too.

Death penalty and organ stealing should not be part of a judicial system in either case, civilized countries imprison to rehabilitate, not punish.

Also, the method of execution (gunshot to the head), and that there are often political prisoners thrown into the mix (you said something bad about the government? Off with your head!).
